Science Tutor Ourimbah, NSW
A tutor in my perspective must be flexible and must be willing to offer any form of support, I.e. helping solve problems, explain concepts in detail, clear misconceptions, etc. Also it is important always maintains a positive attitude and encourages students to learn more. I also think a tutor should be able to provide their students with the…

I think the most important things a tutor can do are to build the student's confidence, explain concepts in a way that suits their learning style, and create a supportive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions. It's not just about giving them the answers, it's about helping them understand the process so they can become…

Inside PalmdaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Liv practised index laws, focusing on multiplying and dividing indices, especially with fractions and the zero index law.

For Year 9, Jayden worked through rearranging algebraic equations and explored both linear and non-linear equations using substitution.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student covered converting between decimals and fractions, ensuring understanding by working through real-world examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student repeatedly left modules incomplete before sessions, making it hard to revise effectively; as one tutor noted, "he must ensure he is doing his work and understanding it so I can quiz him on it."

In Year 10 algebra, messy or unclear written steps hid sign errors, especially when factorising mixed expressions.

A Year 5 student struggled to recall times tables quickly during fraction tasks, which slowed her progress on worded problems.

Meanwhile, in a senior class, leaving revision until the last minute meant test preparation was rushed and formulas weren't memorised—resulting in confusion between area and perimeter under pressure.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Palmdale noticed Liv, a Year 10 student, making a real leap with algebraic fractions—she'd previously relied on intuition but, after working through the actual rules together, she was able to handle powers of powers and fractions accurately without prompting.

Meanwhile, Josh (Year 11) finally broke through his old frustrations with simultaneous equations; he could clearly explain where he used to get stuck and now completes substitution problems independently.

For a younger win, Ruby (Year 4) surprised herself by quickly mastering long addition up to 30 million and now confidently adds large numbers without counting on her fingers.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Tuggerah Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ourimbah Public School.
